Chapter 63 My Son Will Be the Imperial Teacher

at last.

Yan Song will release the anger that has been accumulated since the twelfth month of the previous year.

He vented all his anger towards Yan Shifan.

Faced with the old man's sudden outburst of anger, Yan Shifan was visibly stunned.

It’s not like the old man hadn’t scolded him before.

But this is the first time I have been scolded like this.

"father……"

Yan Shifan's tone became much weaker.

Yan Song snorted coldly, leaned back in his chair somewhat weakly, and looked at Yan Shifan with displeasure.

"What time is it now?"

"I told you early on that my family should be careful now. You should write a letter to Zheng Michang and He Maocai, asking them to destroy the dikes and flood the fields, stop Zhang Juzheng from doing his job, and take the opportunity to prepare to buy the land at a low price."

"Is it the time for you, Yan Shifan, to do these things now?"

Yan Shifan's face was tense, and he whispered, "If Zhang Juzheng succeeds, won't my family be in a more difficult situation? This year, my family has spent four million taels of silver. If we don't make up for it... Dad, I'm afraid that by then no one will call you Lord Yan anymore."

Yan Shifan felt that the injustice he suffered now was comparable to that suffered by Dou E.

All that I did was obviously for the Yan family and for the old man, but I was scolded like a pig.

Yan Song's expression became even more stern. He snorted coldly and pointed his finger at Yan Shaoting who was standing beside him.

"he!"

"Shao Ting, this kid!"

"Years ago, he was just a thousand-household official of the Jinyiwei who was blessed with a favor. If it weren't for the things he did, how could he be the most popular Imperial Academy Reader, Right Junior of the Right Spring Office of the Zhanshi Palace, Commander of the Jinyiwei, and Reader of the Prince of Yu's Palace in the Ming Dynasty?"

Yan Shifan opened his mouth and wanted to speak, but was stopped by Yan Song with a cold look.

Yan Song sighed and said, "Guess what this child said today when he was left alone by His Majesty in Yuxi Palace?"

"What did you say?"

Yan Shifan asked casually.

Yan Song's eyes were filled with regret: "The four million taels that you have been thinking about so much, today Shao Ting has been exchanged for a clear account from His Majesty."

Yan Shifan muttered in confusion, "Is the previous account settled?"

Yan Song snorted and said, "Don't you understand what this means, young minister? Your Majesty is not unaware of what my Yan family has done over the years, but because of my Yan family, an old man like me can do things for Your Majesty, so he has never pursued it.

But can you guarantee that His Majesty or the new emperor will not pursue the matter in the future?
Now that these four million taels of silver have entered the palace, and with Your Majesty's words that all accounts are settled, no one can hold my Yan family accountable for anything that has happened in the past.

Now, do you understand?"

Yan Shifan raised his head and whispered, "Son, I understand..."

"No!" Yan Song said coldly, "You don't understand."

Yan Shaoting stood aside and blinked.

It has been a long time since Old Yan spoke so many words at once.

Yan Song also continued, "Even though the previous accounts have been settled, it does not mean that our Yan family can continue to keep the power and position at present. It was Shao Ting who earned the future status of our Yan family from His Majesty."

I heard that Yan Shaoting was already tied to the future of the Yan family.

Even if it's your own seed.

Yan Shifan still felt a strong sense of jealousy in his heart.

He frowned and said, "He? Earned the future of my Yan family?"

Yan Song said unhappily: "If it's not him, then it must be you, the pig?"

Facing the old man's scolding, Yan Shifan lowered his head obediently, which was rare.

Yan Song's beard trembled: "Zhang Juzheng went to the southeast, it was Shao Ting who proposed it to Your Majesty. If the job is done well, Shao Ting will make a lot of contributions. I told you this at the beginning.

Years later, Shao Ting provided relief to the disaster victims in Shuntian Prefecture, offered advice and supervised the reconstruction of Wanshou Palace. Now he is responsible for implementing national policies and investigating local issues in the southeast.

All this is because His Majesty needs him, and my Yan family can continue to stand in the court and the cabinet. "Yan Shifan looked puzzled and looked up at the old man: "But the one in my Yan family who is in the cabinet is you."

He cursed in his heart.

Who was it that said that the Yan family existed because of you, not because of me, the little cabinet minister?

Yan Song snorted coldly: "You pig-brained person, have you forgotten that this child is now the tutor of the prince of Prince Yu's mansion?"

Yan Shifan said unwillingly, "So what? He is just a baby in swaddling clothes."

"stupid!"

Yan Song's pale and mottled old face flushed red. "Your Majesty, only Prince Yu remains in Beijing. Although he is not the crown prince of the Eastern Palace, he is already the crown prince. As the youngest son of Prince Yu's mansion, as long as this prince does not die young, Shao Ting will be the future prince's teacher, and the teacher of the future emperor of our Ming Dynasty!"

In the study.

The echoes of the Emperor's army are resounding.

Yan Shifan's eyes showed shock.

He had never thought of this.

Now, the old man's words suddenly woke him up.

I hope the baby in Prince Yu’s mansion grows up smoothly and healthily.

Then Prince Yu, who has all these experiences now, will definitely enthrone the Crown Prince as soon as he ascends the throne.

By the time.

He is the eldest grandson of the Yan family and his own eldest son.

He was the prince's teacher of the Ming Dynasty.

He is the imperial tutor of the Ming Dynasty!

Yan Shifan's eyes flickered as he turned to look at Yan Shaoting, who had not spoken for a long time.

He pursed his lips and said in a daze, "This is so rebellious...my son...my son is actually the Imperial Master?"

Seeing Yan Shifan finally understood.

Yan Song let out a long breath.

Seeing that the old man was not going to continue, Yan Shaoting bowed and said, "Father."

Yan Shifan moved his head somewhat uncomfortably and hummed.

Yan Shaoting said: "Father knows best what your Majesty is like. Only those who are useful to your Majesty will be granted authority.

But Prince Yu is different. He is surrounded by upright people like Xu Jie all the year round. If my family continues to act as it did in the past, it will only make Prince Yu hate it and be used by upright people like Xu Jie to completely wipe out my Yan family in the future.

Now I am serving as a tutor to the Crown Prince in Prince Yu's Mansion, which is a foreshadowing.

Now that your majesty has said that we have settled our past accounts, my family will gradually cut ties with mediocre officials like Zheng Michang and He Maocai, which will benefit the country. Prince Yu will not suppress my Yan family for no reason. "

Yan Shifan pursed his lips.

He is not a stupid man, and can even be considered one of the smartest people in the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty.

However, the long-term practices of the Yan family and the Yan Party made it difficult for him to accept such a drastic change in a short period of time.

Yan Shaoting continued, "More importantly, even if it is Prince Yu, although he trusts Xu Jie and others now for various reasons. But when your Majesty dies in the future, and Prince Yu ascends the throne and becomes the emperor of our Ming Dynasty, will he continue to favor Xu Jie and others?"

The emperor is not an existence that can be reasonably explained.

Anyone who becomes an emperor will never be the same as before.

Prince Yu now uses clean officials such as Xu Jie because the Yan Party existed in the past.

But when he ascended the throne and became the emperor of the Ming Dynasty.

Will Xu Jie and other clear-minded people be used alone?

Emperor.

I have always been a creature that will automatically weigh the pros and cons once I enter this role.
